Detailed description
Organic Distilled Lime essential oil comes from organically grown limes, ensuring no synthetic pesticides or fertilizers are used. The distillation process separates the aromatic compounds from the peel, creating a cleaner, softer, and more top note forward lime aroma.
This oil is used frequently in aromatherapy for its refreshing and invigorating qualities. It blends beautifully into skincare, personal fragrance, natural cleaning solutions, and uplifting diffuser blends. Because distillation removes furanocoumarins, it is a preferred choice for leave on skin applications.
Extraction Method
Unlike cold-pressed lime oil, which can be phototoxic, Organic Lime (Distilled) essential oil is produced through steam distillation of the fresh fruit peels. This method yields a bright, non phototoxic citrus oil.
Viscosity
The oil has a thin, watery viscosity, making it easy to blend into sprays, lotions, and diffuser blends.
Color
Distilled lime essential oil is typically clear to pale yellow.
Odor Profile
Its aroma is fresh, sweet citrusy, tart, zesty, crisp, and slightly sweet, lighter and cleaner than expressed lime oil. The scent is bright, cheerful, and invigorating.
